Given an object/executable how to identify the compiler used tocompile it.

[Miner, Jonathan W (CSC) (US SSA)]

Try "strings -a {filename} | grep GCC"

This works for me on a quick test case. It does not work on strip'ed execuables.

Hi Red Hat,

I am not sure if this is a Red Hat linux question or a compiler specific
question. But please guide me.

Given an object/executable how to identify the compiler used to compile it.
Are there any bin-utilities that can be used to find out.

Thank you for any feedback,
-AK
